Exploring secure, trusted and decentralized identity management for the future of digital healthcare.
Exploring a blockchain-based framework for trusted and controlled digital identity management.
Value Innovation Labs developed a Blockchain Identity Management Proof of Concept for a major healthcare organization in North America.
The PoC explored how blockchain technology could be applied to identity management, creating a foundation for a more secure, controlled and decentralized approach to managing digital identities and identity-related information.
Healthcare ecosystems involve multiple stakeholders, systems and interactions where identity information needs to be managed reliably and securely.
Managing identity information across different systems.
Maintaining trusted identity records.
Controlling access to identity-related information.
Enabling secure interactions between participants.
Establishing a trusted decentralized identity framework.
The PoC explored a decentralized approach in which identity-related information could be managed through a trusted blockchain-based framework.
Explores blockchain as a trusted foundation for managing digital identity information.
Explores identity management beyond a single centralized authority.
Provides a framework for establishing and validating trusted digital identities.
Supports controlled access to identity-related information for appropriate participants.
Creates a technology foundation for trusted interactions between authorized participants.
Demonstrates the practical feasibility of blockchain technology for healthcare identity management.
A digital identity is established within the identity-management framework.
Relevant identity information or verification references are associated with the blockchain framework.
The identity can be validated through the trusted blockchain-based network.
Authorized participants interact with identity information according to defined requirements.
The blockchain approach creates a foundation for secure and verifiable digital interactions.
